MORE INFORMATION
All children must be supervised throughout the experience. When bringing very young children, we would advise bringing a sling or baby carrier, as we cannot authorise pushchairs on our experiences (see Accessibility section in the Terms & Conditions below).
If you’re pregnant please be aware that we are a working farm with live animals. We therefore have natural bacteria and parasites which in some circumstances may be harmful to a pregnancy. If you choose to come to our farm or participate in an experience we recommend you do not touch pregnant sheep or lambs and thoroughly wash your hands after being around any of our other animals, especially before consuming food.
This experience is a physical activity which involves walking to and from a field over uneven terrain and standing for up to 60 minutes. You must be capable of keeping up with the rest of the group and standing without putting a strain on your health so please consider this before attending the experience.
